ered from 2005 Jan 17 to 2010 Dec 25. Using photometric information in three UV bands, three optical bands, and a
‘white’ or open filter, the data are optimally co-added to maximize the number of detections and normalized to one
band to provide a detailed light curve. The catalog provides positional, temporal, and photometric information for
each burst, as well as Swift Burst Alert Telescope (BAT) and X-Ray Telescope (XRT) GRB parameters. Temporal
slopes are provided for each UVOT filter. The temporal slope per filter of almost half the GRBs are fit with a single
power-law, but one to three breaks are required in the remaining bursts. Morphological comparisons with the X-ray
reveal that ∼ 75% of the UVOT light curves are similar to one of the four morphologies identified by Evans et al.
(2009). The remaining ∼25% have a newly identified morphology. For many bursts, redshift and extinction corrected
UV/optical spectral slopes are also provided at 2×103, 2×104, and 2×105 seconds.

Second Swift UVOT GRB Catalog 3
1. INTRODUCTION
TheUltraviolet/OpticalTelescope(UVOT;Romingetal.2000,2004,2005)onboardtheSwiftobservatory(Gehrels
et al. 2004), is designed to rapidly follow-up gamma-ray burst (GRB) afterglows in the 170−800 nm range. UVOT
observationsofGRBafterglowswerefirstcatalogedbyRomingetal.(2009, hereafterPaper1)andincludes229bursts
discovered between 2005 January 17 and 2007 June 16. These bursts were primarily discovered by Swift but also
includeGRBsdiscoveredbytheHighEnergyTransientExplorer2(HETE2;Ricker 1997),INTErnationalGamma-Ray
Astrophysics Laboratory (INTEGRAL), and Interplanetary Network (IPN; Hurley et al. 2005). In Paper1, positional,
temporal, and photometric information is provided for each GRB afterglow, as well as filter-dependent light curves
which are fit with a single power-law.
In this paper we describe the second Swift UVOT GRB afterglow catalog and corresponding databases, which
contain information on bursts observed during the first six years of UVOT operations (2005-2010). This catalog more
than doubles the number of observed GRBs and also includes UVOT observations of Fermi Large Area Telescope
(LAT; Atwood et al. 2009) and Astro-rivelatore Gamma a Immagini Leggero (AGILE; Tavani et al. 2009) discovered
GRBs. The catalog and databases include much of the same type of information provided in Paper1 but also include
important additions: data is optimally co-added (Morgan et al. 2008, hereafter M08) to increase the number of
detections, optimally co-added data is normalized to a given bandpass, and normalized data are fit with single and
brokenpower-laws. Additionally,redshiftandextinctioncorrectedspectralslopesandfilterdependenttemporalslopes
are provided.
In Section 2 we present the observations made by the UVOT. In Section 3 we describe the construction of the
image/event and normalized optimally co-added databases and the resulting GRB catalog. In Section 4 we describe
thedatabasesandcatalog. InSection5weprovideasummaryofthecatalogandinSection6discussfuturework. The
databases and catalogs are provided in electronic format as part of this paper and are also available at the Barbara
A. Mikulski Archive for Space Telescopes (MAST)1 and Swift2 websites.
2. OBSERVATIONS
The UVOT utilizes seven broadband filters during the observation of GRBs: uvw2 (λ = 193 nm), uvm2 (λ =
c c
225 nm), uvw1 (λ =260 nm), u (λ =346 nm), b (λ =439 nm), v (λ =547 nm), and a clear-filter (Roming et al.
c c c c
2005; Poole et al. 2008). Data in each filter are collected in either image or event mode. In image mode, individual
photons are collected, aspect corrected, and added to an onboard image buffer. At the conclusion of an exposure,
images are packaged and sent to the spacecraft awaiting transfer to the ground. In event mode, individual photons
are collected, time tagged, and sent to the ground where they are converted to event lists and aspect corrected sky
images. Theeventdataisusedtocreatehightimeresolution(∼11 ms)photometryofbrightburstswhileimagedata
is used for fainter sources. A more complete description of the filters, image acquisition, and observing sequences can
be found in Paper1.
This catalog includes 626 bursts first detected by the Swift Burst Alert Telescope (BAT; Barthelmy et al. 2005),
HETE2, INTEGRAL, IPN, LAT, and AGILE during the period from 2005 Jan 17 to 2010 Dec 25. A total of 538 of
the 626 bursts were observed (but not necessarily detected) by the UVOT representing 86% of the cataloged bursts.
Bursts detected by BAT but not observed by UVOT were either too close in angular distance to a bright (< 6 mag)
∼
source (including the Sun and Moon), or occurred during UVOT engineering operations.
Hereafter, we adopt the notation F(ν,t)∝tανβ for the afterglow flux density as a function of time, where ν is the
frequency of the observed flux density, t is the time post trigger, β is the spectral index which is related to the photon
index Γ (β =Γ−1) , and α is the temporal decay slope.
3. CONSTRUCTION OF THE DATA PRODUCTS
To provide context for understanding the work described herein, we define the following: image pipeline, event
pipeline, databases, and catalog. The image pipeline is an IDL-based program that incorporates the UVOT tool,
uvotsource3, and is used to perform photometry on Level-1 images. The event pipeline is a collection of tools used
to perform fine aspect corrections on UVOT event data and photometric measurements on the resulting event lists;
photometry is performed with uvotevtlc. The event pipeline software is described in detail elsewhere (Oates et al.

3 http://heasarc.nasa.gov/ftools/caldb/help/uvotsource.html
4 Roming et al.
2009). The databases are a repository for all photometric measurements made by the photometry pipeline. There are
two databases: the image/event database that is the result of processing the raw UVOT data, and the normalized
optimally co-added (NOC) database that is the final product used to produce the NOC light curves. The catalog
is a compilation of the top-level data derived from the image/event and NOC databases, and other sources such as
the BAT catalog (Sakamoto et al. 2008, 2011), the Swift GRB archive4 (SGA), and the Gamma-ray burst Coordinate
Network (GCN; Barthelmy et al. 1995, 1998) circulars. As such, this catalog provides the primary characteristics for
each burst.
3.1. Image/Event Database Construction
The image/event database was constructed using the image and event pipelines which are essentially the same as
those described in Sections 3.1 and 3.2 of Paper1. Differences are noted below.
To ensure that all images and exposure maps benefited from consistent and up-to-date calibrations, the Swift Data
Center (SDC) reprocessed images taken before GRB 070621. This reprocessing was necessary due to the fact that
earlier versions of the processing pipeline did not take advantage of essential lessons learned from the first years of
operations. Images for subsequent bursts were taken directly from the Swift archive. The FTOOL uvotskycorr was
manuallyrunonasmallnumberofarchiveimagestoimprovetheaspectsolution. InPaper1,wereportedtheposition
ofpotentiallycontaminatingsources. Thishasbeendroppedfromthecurrentversionofthedatabasesinceitsprimary
purpose is already accounted for in a quality flag.
For event lists, all available event data (including settling exposures) from the first observation segment, which can
span more than one orbit, was extracted; in Paper1, we only considered event data taken in the v- and white-filters in
the first orbit. We note that for the earliest settling exposures (<4 s) the cathode is still warming up, therefore these
∼
exposures can produce erroneous values. All settling exposures in these databases are marked with a quality flag.
BothimageandeventpipelinesutilizedHEADASVersion6.10andthe2011January31UVOTCALDB.InPaper1,
we provided only 3(cid:48).(cid:48)0 radius apertures that were used for aperture photometry. In this version we provide both 3(cid:48).(cid:48)0
and 5(cid:48).(cid:48)0 radius photometry apertures in the image and event pipelines. Upper limits were reported for sources <2σ.
Here we use 2σ instead of 3σ (as in Paper1) since the position of the burst is often known to the arcsecond-level.
To determine the fraction of false positives (f ) we use Equation 1, where N is the number of non-detections
FP ND
(<2σ) in the catalog (98,601 and 98,689 for the 3(cid:48).(cid:48)0 and 5(cid:48).(cid:48)0 databases, respectively), Q(2) is the Q-function5 at two
standard deviations, and M is the number of observations (119,598 and 120,217).
f =N Q(2)(1−Q(2))−1M−1 (1)
FP ND
We conservatively estimate that the fraction of false positives is 1.92% and 1.91% for the 3(cid:48).(cid:48)0 and 5(cid:48).(cid:48)0 databases,
respectively.
3.2. Normalized Optimally Co-added Database Construction
The NOC Database was created through a five step process: initial optimal co-addition of the data, preliminary fits
to the light curves, rerunning of the optimal co-addition, refitting of the light curves, and normalization of the color
light curves to a single filter. Optimal co-addition is one of the fundamental differences between this work and that
presented in Paper1.
The first step was to perform optimal co-addition on each burst in the 5(cid:48).(cid:48)0 image/event database for each filter.
Optimal co-addition uses the α of a GRB to “optimally weight each exposure during image summation to maximize
the signal-to-noise of the final co-added image” (M08). This initial step recovers a greater number of individual
detections in each filter with which to generate light curves. Our method differs slightly from the one provided by
the FTOOL uvotoptsum since uvotoptsum is optimized for individual detections whereas our code is optimized for
producing detailed light curves. M08 have shown that using an α within ±0.5 of the actual GRB α during optimal
co-addition provides for a more significant detection than an unweighted co-addition technique; therefore, during the
initial optimal co-addition process, we used a “canonical” α of 0.88, an average decay value determined from a sample
oflightcurvesfor>500 safterthetrigger(Oatesetal.2009). Fromtheoptimallyco-addeddataweproduceddetailed
light curves for each burst in each filter.

temporal slope each time. Our fitting routine is centered around the IDL-based program mpfit (Markwardt 2009).
For each α, a model fit is produced, compared to the data, and an overall χ2 for the entire light curve is calculated.
Red
For purposes of this catalog, we assume that the cooling frequency (ν ) has not, or has already, passed through the
c
UVOT bandpass for all bursts. Confirmation of this assumption will be provided in a forthcoming publication. Based
on this assumption, for each segment of the burst and a given α, the average χ2 for all filters is calculated. The
Red
α with an average χ2 that most closely approaches unity is the temporal slope used for the given segment in the
Red
remaining steps.
With newly determined temporal slopes for each burst, optimal co-addition was rerun on each burst in the im-
age/event database. The newly produced light curves were then refitted as described previously (e.g. Figure 1). All
color light curves for each burst were then normalized to a given band (typically v-band) and then fit with a single,
broken, or multiply-broken power law (e.g. Figure 1), as described in Racusin et al. (2009).
3.3. Quality Control
As in Paper1, we compare a sample of the resultant light curves with those published in the literature to check
for consistency: GRBs 050525A (Blustin et al. 2006), 050603 (Grupe et al. 2006), 050730 (Perri et al. 2007), 050801
(De Pasquale et al. 2007), 050802 (Oates et al. 2007), 060124 (Romano et al. 2006), 060313 (Roming et al. 2006a),
060729 (Grupe et al. 2007), 061007 (Schady et al. 2007), 070125 (Updike et al. 2008), 080319B (Racusin et al. 2008),
080810 (Page et al. 2009), 081008 (Yuan et al. 2010), 081203A (Kuin et al. 2009), 090426 (Xin et al. 2011), 090510
(De Pasquale et al. 2010), and 090902B (Pandey et al. 2010). For each of these bursts, we look for at least three
events with comparable exposure times at similar epochs while keeping the normalized and published filters the same
whenever possible. Based on these criteria, we compare the magnitudes, fluxes, or count rates to determine if they
are consistent with each other, within the errors. We note that some values are visually extracted from the literature
for comparison as there are no tabular values available. Our resultant light curves are found to be consistent with the
published values.
3.4. GRB Catalog Construction
The UVOT GRB Catalog was constructed by combining information from various databases and catalogs. The
filter,magnitude,andflux6 ofthefirstandpeakdetections,alongwiththestarttimesoftheseevents,weretakenfrom
the image/event database for each burst. Temporal slopes in each filter for each burst were derived from the NOC
light curves. From these temporal slopes, dust extinction and redshift corrected fluxes in each filter were computed
at 2×103 s, 2×104 s, and 2×105 s and spectral slopes were determined. These times were chosen so as to be after
the period of greatest afterglow variation (500 s; Oates et al. 2009) and to span two decades in time. Details of the
spectral slope fitting are provided in Table 6-Column 332.
Additional information for the catalog was gleaned from the UVOT data, SGA, or the literature. A reference to the
best reported burst position is provided. Also included is a flag indicating which observatory discovered each burst.
The burst trigger time, T , BAT fluence, BAT peak photon flux, BAT photon index, Swift X-Ray Telescope (XRT;
90
Burrows et al. 2005) flux at various epochs, XRT temporal and spectral indices, and the HI column density along the
line of sight are from the SGA and are provided in the catalog for each burst.
4. DATABASE AND CATALOG FORMATS

1 OBJECT Object identification. The format is GRByymmddX, where yy is the last two
digits of the year of the burst, mm is the month, dd is the day (in UTC), and
X is used to represent the first, second, third, etc., burst occurring on a given
day by the letters ‘A’, ‘B’, ‘C’, etc. In some cases the ‘A’ is not displayed.
2 RA J2000.0 right ascension in decimal degrees.
3 DEC J2000.0 declination in decimal degrees.
4 POS ERR Positional uncertainty in arcseconds.
5 TRIGTIME Time of burst trigger as measured in Swift mission elapsed time (MET). MET
is measured in seconds and starts on 2001 January 1, 00:00:00.000 (UTC).
Swift launch MET is 122668545.865 (2004 November 20, 18:35:45.865 UTC).
6 TRIG UT Time of burst trigger as measured in UTC (e.g. 2005-017-12:52:36). Due to
an error in the processing code some UTC times (TRIG UT) have not been
corrected for clock drift, therefore, these values should be treated with caution.
MET (TRIGTIME) is not affected by clock drift.
7 TSTART MET start time of the exposure.
8 TSTOP MET stop time of the exposure.
9 TELAPSE TSTOP - TSTART in seconds.
10 TIME TSTART + TELAPSE/2 (see columns 7 and 9).
11 TSINCE BUR Time since burst trigger in seconds (TSTART - TRIGTIME).
12 EXPOSURE Corrected exposure time in seconds. Corrections include: detector dead time,
time lost when the spacecraft drift is large enough that event data is lost,
time lost when the UVOT Digital Processing Unit buffers fill due to high
count rates, and time lost due to exposures in the UVOT blocked filter.
13 FILTER UVOT filter used for exposure (uvw2, uvm2, uvw1, u, b, v, and white).
14 BINNING Binning factor (1=1×1 and 2=2×2 sq-pixel binning) for 0(cid:48).(cid:48)5 pixels.
15 APERTURE Photometric aperture radius in arcseconds.
16 SRC AREA Area of source aperture in square arcseconds, computed by multiplying the
number of pixels found by XIMAGE within the source radius by the area of
each pixel. This value can differ from the specified area πr2 by up to 2%
because XIMAGE selects whole pixels within the source radius. This
approach produces an area slightly larger or smaller than πr2. Simulations
reveal that the 1σ difference between the exact and XIMAGE areas are 1.0%
and 1.5% for a 10 and 6 pixel radius, respectively. The error in photometry
is much less than these area fluctuations because source counts are
concentrated in the center of the aperture and the aperture correction uses

the radius corresponding to the XIMAGE area.
17 BKG AREA Area, in square arcseconds, of the background region. It is calculated by
taking the number of pixels in the background annulus and multiplying by
the area of each pixel. Masked regions are excluded therefore only net
pixels are included. This differs slightly from the exact area π(r −r )2,
o i
but we are only interested in the background surface brightness, so the
difference is not significant.
18 PLATE SCALE Image plate scale in arcseconds per pixel. Error in the mean plate scale is
±0(cid:48).(cid:48)0005 pixel−1.
19 RAW TOT CNTS Total number of counts measured within the source region.
20 RAW TOT CNTS ERR Binomial error in RAW TOT CNTS. The binomial error is given by
(RAW TOT CNTS)1/2∗((NFRAME−RAW TOT CNTS)/NFRAME)1/2
where NFRAME = TELAPSE / FRAMTIME and FRAMTIME=0.011032 s
for the full FoV. NFRAME is the number of CCD frames (typically one every
∼11 ms). A discussion of the measurement errors in the UVOT can be
found in Kuin & Rosen (2008).
21 RAW BKG CNTS Total number of counts measured in the background annulus.
22 RAW BKG CNTS ERR Binomial error in RAW BKG CNTS. The binomial error is given by
(RAW BKG CNTS)1/2∗((NFRAME−EFF BKG CNTS)/NFRAME)1/2
where EFF BKG CNTS = RAW BKG CNTS * 80 / BKG AREA. The
effective counts in the background (EFF BKG CNTS) is calculated
because the background area is larger than the coincidence region.
The value 80 is the area (in square arcseconds) of our circular aperture
with a radius of 5(cid:48)(cid:48).
23 RAW STD CNTS Total number of counts measured within the standard 5(cid:48)(cid:48) aperture. This
constant value is based on the size of the current calibration aperture.
24 RAW STD CNTS ERR Binomial error associated with RAW STD CNTS.
25 RAW TOT RATE Total measured count rate, in counts per second, in the source region.
Calculated using RAW TOT CNTS / EXPOSURE.
